[Captivate General] sjtonic:
I've just found out that the Captivate lacks many locales the other Android phones have. By default it supports English, Spanish, Italian, French, and German. Yes, it's still possible to install third-party keyboard to use russian, polish, norvegian (e.g. Smart Keybord from Android Market) languages, but I'd prefer native support.

Shame on AT&T and Samsung!

When I had my Aria, I could turn off the data connection but I cannot find the setting on the captivate.

I would also love to know how to turn off the 3G data so I can be 100% positive that I'm not eating all of my monthly allotment when I think I'm on wifi
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alambers:
I use "APN on-off Widget" from the market. It's a simple 1x1 widget that allows you to enable and disable APN (data) connectivity with a single tap. It's color coded green/red for data on/off.

Download "network" app from the market place. Start the app, press menu, and press disable data. Works great for me. Would prefer an edge only option.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidftwin:
when by a wifi connection, can you just connect to the wifi connection to disable data?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pjs2004:
When I first got my phone, came home, and connect to my wifi, it was showing the 3g icon next to the wifi icon for like a day and a half. Then for some reason, I had to power the phone completely off and back on again. So, now it just shows the wifi icon when I'm at home, and switches properly to 3g when I go out.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaneaus:
Been looking around for awhile (almost last two years!)

My favorite app/widget for controlling all sorts of things on the device (including data) is:

Extended Controls

Frigging AWESOME - not related to them or anything - just a fan of the app.

I use it and have TWO of their widgets full of controls on one screen!
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrmChsr:
This is my first post ever to a forum. So, hopefully this comes out ok.

Just picked up my Captivate yesterday and was trying to figure this out also. Found a post by someone, can't remember from where, to go Settings, Wireless and network, Mobile networks, Access Point Names and then add a bogus APN. I named mine OFF. Once you have a bogus APN then select it instead of the ATT WAP. Well, tried this and it didn't work, still had icon at top for mobile data and was transferring data. That is until I got to messing around trying out some the settings and I happen to activate Flight mode, still had bogus APN selected. Then once I turned Flight mode back off the icon was gone and no more data transfer from mobile network. Then when I wanted to turn mobile data back on just went back and selected ATT WAP and the icon popped back in and connected to mobile network.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benclayton:
Extended Controls offers an APN toggle that works very well, and it's not a bad looking widget either.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immaterialman:
Undocumented Debug/Diagnostic Menus In Your Android Phone - I found this at: TechSupportAlert

From your Android phone, dial *#*#4636#*#* and then wait a couple of seconds. The testing menu will appear. To exit back to your normal phone, just press your back/exit button. If you're going to explore the various options on the testing menu, take care.

As for the method to turn off data, select the first option on the testing menu (phone information), then press your menu key. You'll see a selection of buttons, one of which says "disable data connection". Press it, and you're all done. To re-enable your data connection, go to the same menu, where you'll find that the name of the button is now "enable data connection".

I tried it on my GT-P1000 and it worked perfectly.

Just in case it helps?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quarlow:
If you are running stock FroYo there is a data connection in the power menu. Hold the power button, and press Data Network. It wasn't there in Eclair, but they added it in FroYo. If I remember right it will even remain disabled after a reboot. I can't test as my phones are no longer stock, but my wife once thought she broke her captivate because she accidentally toggled that.

Airplane mode and wifi?

Am I missing something in my quick review of this thread?

I am going to Europe and dont want any service at all except for wifi.

Cant I just enable airplane mode and then turn on the wifi? Or will those sneaky bastards at ATT find a way to still charge me for something?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] studacris:
Just leave your sim card out of the phone then there is no possible way to "sneak charges"...

wifi works with no sim. And you will get kick ass battery life without it.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FireRaider:
I am in Venice now after a week in Paris and leaving the phone in airplane mode seems to be doing the trick. But let me just say, hotel wifi in Europe sucks! Its nothing like the states. You get a user name and a password and have to log in every single time. And only one user at a time. I need a wifi repeater or something to use my laptop, iPod, and phone as I want to.

I might be missing something here, but when I press and hold the power button, my second option is "Data Network Mode". When I tap it, I can toggle data on or off. Do you American AT&T customers not have this feature?

[XPERIA X10 General] corruptfate:
Hi guys,

My xperia x10 only charges up to 98% anyone know why its like that?

Thanks in Advance
[XPERIA X10 General] k0sun7eash3d:
Double check that you are removing it right as it finishes charging. There are a few posts already detailing what that the x10 will stop charging once it reaches 100%, and will not resume until the battery drains below 90%.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
What makes you say that??

Reason I ask is because once the phone is fully charged it will stop charging and start to drain down to c.90% when it will kick in again..

Alternatively.. if you have a genuine problem, it could be that your battery needs re-calibrating... drain it completely till the phone switches off.. then fully charge it with no use.. redrain it, then recharge it again..
[XPERIA X10 General] corruptfate:
i know its not going to 100% because I was watching it and using juice plotter. Also I think this might be the calibration problem. Another weird thing, is that I have to "force" it to go up to 98 but it usually just stays at the highest as 94 or 95. Also how many times do I have to discharge it.
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
2 or three should do it.. see how it goes.. are you using the SE charger by the way?? it 's a bit sensitive to non OEM chargers..
[XPERIA X10 General] corruptfate:
ya im using the SE charger
[XPERIA X10 General] mackdaddy187:
Honestly with the new batteries, you should not fully discharge them. Li-ion batteries lose their capacity if you discharge them. I have learnt this lesson the hard way with 2 laptop batteries. I always keep my x10 above 10% and it is still at 100% health.
[XPERIA X10 General] iridaki:
Sometimes, when you are monitoring the battery with 3rd party applications,

the indications are a bit off.

For example, I am using Battery Status widget and I've set it to update every five minutes, so that it won't drain the battery instead of just indicating it.

So, when the phone is charging, sometimes the light goes off (meaning 100% charged) but the widget shows 97% or 98%. And 5 minutes later it shows fully charged.

So, it could be a fault to the software you're using and not the phone or the battery's at all.

When the green LED goes off, go to Settings>About>Status and check what the percentage under battery level is. If it is 100%, you're just fine. ;)
[XPERIA X10 General] im_iceman:
macdaddy... These aren't li-ion

. They're li-polymer.. They don't need conditioning. But they do sometimes need re-calibrating.

ROM Tests great!

Thanks Aeroflyluby, of all the ROMS I have tested on the Himalaya, this is easily the best, fastest, and most usable. Awesome!

I would prefer the Background of the Kiwi Fruit over the flowers.

Only small issue with Calendar in WM6.5. Due to larger font can only see a few hours in "Day View", which means you have to scroll up and down to see all appointments in a day. Is there any way to change Day View to see most of the day like with WM6.1?

Keep up the good work.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 6 Upgrading] aeroflyluby:

On testing a few apps designed for WM5/6.1, that have a toolbar along the bottom of the screen, so the WM6.5 StartBar is not visable, and therefore can't close the app except by using menu system, and selecting "Exit".

Is there any way to get back the HTC Taskbar, so we can have a task manager with "X" in the top right corner to manage these apps?

[Vibrant General] turbosix:
Anyone use worth ave group for warranty on their phone? Www.worthavegroup.com. the tmobile warranty sucks... 5.99/mo and a deductible of 130 vs. worth costing around 55/yr and a 50 deductible.

Thoughts?
[Vibrant General] ben7337:
Hmm sounds cheap, but look at their policy.

"How long does it take to receive payment?

Your claim will be processed in approximately 4 weeks."

So if I break my phone I have to file said claim, send them my phone, and pray they cover the cost while I buy a new phone for the $500 or $600 it would cost? Also if you look they require you to go to a repair place and get an estimate on repair costs and other things, which I'm not sure who you'd go to, but I don't imagine a cell carrier would happily give you the papers needed to file a claim with an insurance company that isn't the one they partner with.

Is there any way to get back some of the Tmobile functionality like tmobile sync and account access and some of the stuff that came w/the orginal ROM etc. By the way, this ROM is fantastic.

hello everybody

I didn't find the answer to my question (I used the search tool) so forgive me if it has allready been answered:

is it possible, in order to improve performance, to format /data which is actually using the samsung rfs into ext4 so that the hack of formating the external sd card and moving /data on it will be unnecessary?

thank you by advance.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] Darkstriker:
As of now we have no way at all to modify what file system is on the internal storage devices. Besides I do not believe that the we evildoer in this case is a poor fs.

Rfs seems to have pretty poor performances compared to ext4 but I'm not an expert so maybe is it useless.

We do NOT have a way to modify the filesystem on the internal storage. We can unmount it but we CANNOT format it!

[General Questions and Answers] hellphir:
I hope someone can offer me some help. I'm trying to figure the path from icon to application that the icons on the slider have. For example, the picture icon on the slider when tapped takes you to the "Photos & Videos" app and the silver circle with an arrow in the middle takes you to the "Sprint Navigation". Some icons on the slider, some that I mentioned above, when tapped, take you to a different looking version of that application versus tapping on the icons in the programs list. What I'm trying to figure out is, where or how do I find what application the icons on the slider are linked to, by path or otherwise.

On another note, do you know where I would find the location of the icons for the applications in the program list? If you could provide me with any help, I would appreciate it.
